from Tom Gulitti of Fire & Ice,
Devils goaltender Cory Schneider said this morning he is “very surprised” he is not starting tonight’s game against the Carolina Hurricanse and “frustrated” that he’s in the same situation again where he’s not playing often.
Martin Brodeur will start his third consecutive game tonight and for the 11th time in the last 15 games.
“Marty’s playing well, he’s going good,” Schneider said. “So, you’ll have to ask coach.”
Schneider, 27, was in a similar situation the last three seasons in Vancouver where he shared a net with Roberto Luongo. It’s clear he was hoping things would be better for him after he was traded to the Devils on June 30, even with the 41-year-old Future Hall of Famer Brodeur still on the team.
“It’s Groundhog Day for me,” Schneider said. “I can’t seem to escape it. I’m just trying to work hard and do what I can. I’d just like to see the ice a bit more is all.”
